These days ‘Dhurandhar 2’ is getting tremendous positive response from the audiences. Many celebrities have praised the efforts of the director and the entire stars. Recently, director Aditya Dhar wrote a note to his editor Shivakumar Panicker for ‘Dhurandhar’ and ‘Dhurandhar 2’.Aditya praised the editor’s craft and wrote on
“He also added, “The kind of person who will stand by your side, fight for you, and, if it comes to that, put it all on the line for you. Then there’s the genius. Schiff is, without a doubt, one of the smartest film editors I’ve ever known. But what makes him truly exceptional isn’t just his skill, but his instinct.”“His understanding of rhythm, emotion and storytelling is almost frighteningly precise.
He doesn’t just edit the film, he brings it to life. With Durandar, what he achieved seems nothing short of a miracle. Yes, the decision to split the film into two parts was my decision, but the responsibility for making this decision lies entirely with him. “And the way he carried that on his shoulders, the way he shaped it, lifted it, made it smooth was extraordinary.”“On schedules that were, frankly, the craziest I’ve ever seen.
While films of this size take months, sometimes years, to edit, Schiff delivered them in a matter of days. days. Not only did he deliver, but he delivered excellence. The more intense version of the film, under pressure that would crack most people. What we have achieved with Dhurandhar, in terms of scale, quality and deadlines, is unheard of,” he added in the post.
““It breaks all the traditional norms that filmmaking has followed for years.
A large part of this credit goes to him. But what makes this even more special is that his contribution didn’t start in the newsroom. He’s been there from the beginning.Like a silent co-director. Through writing. Through prep. Through the chaos of the shootout. Through mail. Always present. I’m always thinking. Always pushing the film to be better. He never allowed pressure to ease the work. He never chose comfort over condemnation.
He never backed down.”“This integrity, this hunger, this loyalty is rare. And it’s something I’ll carry with me for life. The truth is, I don’t see myself making a film without him. Not now. Not ever. In many ways, he’s my responsibility to life, just as he made every one of my films. Some contributions are measurable. And then there are people like Shiv who become part of your journey in a way that words can never fully express.”
Endless love, respect and gratitude. Durandar will always carry his heartbeat within him.”‘Dhurandhar: The Revenge’ features an ensemble cast that includes Ranveer Singh, Sanjay Dutt, R Madhavan, Sara Arjun and Rakesh Bedi. The story continues from the first installment, released in December 2025.
